On September 10, according to 9to5Google, Android 12 Beta 5 was launched this week, and Google Pixel 5a can try the upgrade.

On Android 12 Beta 5, 9to5Google discovered a new feature in which Google will limit phone charging under certain conditions to protect the battery.

Specifically, Google will limit charging when the phone overheats, and the Android 12 system will prompt "Your phone is restricted from charging to maintain battery health."

For example, playing games while charging will cause the phone to overheat, and the system will suspend charging when the battery reaches 80%.

It is not yet certain whether this feature of Android 12 is exclusive to Google Pixel models. It is worth noting that Android 12 Beta 5 is very close to the official version of Android 12. It is expected that Google will officially push the Android 12 update next. Pixel will be one of the first models to upgrade to Android 12. The upcoming Google Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro and other flagships will be pre-installed with Android 12.
